Philippians 4:9 · KJV

"Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you."

King James Version

Passage Context

⁷And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

⁸Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

⁹Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

¹⁰But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.

¹¹Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

Devotional Reflection

GratitudeHope

I don't know about you, but I really hope that what I say and teach shows up in my life. What a great thing it would be to say to the people we lead in the classroom, at home, at work, or at church!

Prayer

God Almighty and Highest, please bless me with the integrity that comes from having the same beliefs, words, and actions. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

We should remember Paul's example as we try to pass on our faith to our children, our friends, and our younger spiritual "children" in the faith. Paul then asked the people he was mentoring to put this truth into practice in their daily lives. This would let them feel God's presence in their lives and find the peace that God so deeply wants to give them.

Prayer

Father, help me to be a better teacher in word and deed as I try to influence those around me, those who need my help in their Christian walk, and those in my family who want to grow in Your grace. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
